A real-world example

Which addresses will transact with known dark web marketplace wallets in the next 30 days?

Abacus exit scam (2025). Dark web markets use crypto as their primary payment rail. By the time an address transacts with a marketplace, the evidence trail is established. Predicting marketplace connections before transactions happen supports FinCEN SAR filings with predictive intelligence.

How KumoRFM solves this

Graph-powered fraud intelligence

Kumo learns transactional patterns that precede dark web marketplace interactions. Addresses that will interact with marketplaces show specific behavioral signatures: fragmented transfers, privacy coin swaps, and connections to previously flagged intermediaries. The graph reveals 2-hop connections to labeled marketplace addresses.
